[spy622]

the open pod no good ? den got another type is the knn filter type 1 right ? whats the difference ?

 

go n read the 2 runner threads...open pod filter convertion had been discuss a million times.

 

Get your terms correct 1st.

 

Open pod = not using airbox but fitted with a universal aftmkt clamp on air filter to the air intake of the carb (Usually the universal clamp on filter looks like a pod)

 

K&N filter = K&N is a manufacturer of air filters who have a series of products inclusive clamp on filters

Another tip on how to roughly choose your rollers n set your clutch.

 

Setting up the transmission by the seat of your pants

This is a basic run down of how to set-up your transmission without any fancy tools, and will get you in the ballpark. Once again don't do this on the road were you are likely to run into cars etc. - Firstly leave the clutch alone, if you have an adjustable clutch on leave the springs in a weak state of tension. Then on a level road or track open the scoot to full throttle. As it accelerates you have to sense two things; acceleration at low revs and then as it reaches top RPM, how it is pulling. There are two extremes and we are looking for a point in between. If acceleration is good initially but we never reach the terminal speed the scooter is capable of and the engine is screaming its nuts off, then the roller weights are too light. On the other hand poor acceleration initially and a scooter that pulls well as it reaches top speed suggests roller weights that are too heavy. If you find one of these scenarios then you will have to find the appropriate roller weights. If you take a look at a roller weight chart you will find that they go up in very small weight increments, so when choosing them take small steps. If you know the rough weight, some tuners sell kits with a few different roller weights around the one you require. With the rollers sorted on smaller scooters the clutch has to be set. Basically a soft setting on the springs gives a leisurely take-off while a hard-set spring gives you a screaming engine and a front wheel in the clouds. Your choices are, springs of various strengths or an adjustable clutch. - DON'T expect to get it spot on first time and if you are fitting new belts and clutches let them bed in before making them work for a living.

thats an open pod filter. try to read around first before changing one. if not later lots of complaints. hehe

 

its a bullet filter to be exact.. contact taihin if u r interested. u need to rejet ur carb to fully utilise it. good or bad, tats up to u to decide. imo, stock airbox is sufficient for my relatively stock engine.. hehehe!

u can still wash in JB...a tip for u is to carry plastic bags in your bike.

When u wash it, use the bag to wrap around the whole filter n carb so prevent water from going in..it helps

 

And stand n c how they wash..warn them again if they r spraying near that area.

 

Common mistake with riders lah

Or the best way is to wash it yourself because you know whats good for it.
